Twenty thousand shouting enthusiasts crowded the high
tiers of seats in the grand stand and on the bleachers this afternoon
to see the annual football game between Berkeley and Stanford. The
women, who formed no small portion of the crowd, were gowned in
their prettiest and were no whit less noisy than their male escorts.
Men and women were attired in bright colors, and the bewildering
blend of Stanford crimson and Berkeley blue and gold on the benches
made a spectacle worth seeing. To cap all, the weather was ideal.
The bright sun had driven away the clouds of yesterday and made
it safe for the women to wear their gayest clothes.

It was a scene of brightness, gaiety and uproariousness.
The "rooters" of the competing colleges sat in divisions
at the south side of the grounds. Each college had a brass band
and musicians picked for the leathern quality of their lungs, and
the antagonistic airs made anything but harmony.

Berkeley had a slight majority in the "rooters'"
benches, but Stanford made a din that nothing could down.

Most of the spectators arrived early and the wait
before the game was enlivened by college songs, football choruses
and yells both hopeful of victory and derisive of the enemy.

The field was in good condition. Yesterday it was
sloppy and sticky, and the experts feared a slow and muddy game.
But overnight the gridiron was sprinkled with sand, which absorbed
the water and made it fine and dry.

President Wheeler's 8-year-old boy was mascot for
Berkeley. He crossed the field before the teams appeared and was
gotten up in a miniature baseball costume. His progress across the
gridiron was wildly cheered. At his heels came the Berkeley team,
who at once began practice work.

They were immediately followed by the Stanford players,
who kept warm and limber by running and jumping on the ball.

The officials of the game were: Goodwin, referee;
King Dixon, umpire; Joe Franklin and Billy McLaine, linesmen; Dave
Brown, timekeeper.

At 2:45 o'clock Murphy of Stanford kicked off thirty-five
yards and Smith of Berkeley ran the ball back fifteen yards. On

Phelan-Tilden Trophy Goes to Berkeley.

The result of the game between the Berkeley and Stanford
teams gives the splendid trophy presented by Mayor Phelan and executed
by Douglas Tilden, sculptor,
to Berkeley. The statue stands now at the entrance of the Hopkins
Institute, where it excites the admiration of all visitors. It is
called, "The Football Players," and represents two figures,
one binding a wound on the other's leg, received in some desperate
scrimmage. The figures are of heroic proportions and show a splendid
conception of athletic perfection.

The trophy was offered by the Mayor with the understanding
that it should go to the team winning the best two out of a series
of three games of football. Berkeley won last year, and when the
game was called to-day had the advantage in that it had only one
more game to win. Its victory to-day gave it the trophy by two straight
wins.
